Home Inspectors Articles

Given that we received very mixed reviews for home inspection services in our surveys of local consumers, we expected some companies in our test would perform better than others. But what really miffed us was how little work many inspectors bothered to do.

Hold off on paying hundreds of dollars for an inspection until you perform your own checks for big problems that might make you run away from the deal. And ask the seller to disclose current and past problems.
